Ganz schlechte Erfahrung. Man hat uns über eine Stunde nach Ankunft noch nicht bedient, wir hatten eine Flasche Prosecco und kaltes spärliches Abendessen und sollten am schluss 250 Dollar dafür bezahlen. Nicht zu empfehlen! Das Essen war sehr schlecht und überhaupt nicht so wie auf den Bildern online. Serviert wurde auf Papiertellern und in Plastikbechern. Super grosse Enttäuschung!

The service was terrible, we did not feel welcome. There were many gringos and they were the only ones who served. The place is very uncomfortable and too noisy. The menu does not have much variety. I do not recommend it especially for locals. El trato fue pésimo no nos sentíamos acogidos. Habían muchos gringos y ellos eran los únicos que atendían. El lugar es muy incomodo y demasiado ruidoso. El menú no tiene mucha variedad. No lo recomiendo especialmente para los locales.

It was a rough night due to the power outage but after an hour of waiting for a sangria and a cheese plate we had to leave. Wait staff were doing their best but not sure it would be much better on a different night. :(.

LOVED this quaint rooftop bar!!! Great tapas and even better drinks! Everything was amazing! Very flexible and kind owner/waiter. It’s Puerto Rico, so like everywhere else in the island, have a quality time and don’t expect the food to come right out as you may in NY. This place truly is a treasure!

This was such a great experience! It was a bit of a slow night, but the view was wonderful, the drinks were delicious, and the fries with seasoning were exactly what I wanted! Thank you so much for the fun night ☺️☺️

Be ready to walk up hill, at least coming from where we parked, sheesh wear comfortable shoes! We arrived and the greeter was preoccupied, we told her we had a reservation and said walk outside table with reserved sign. So we sat ourselves. No paper menus, once we scanned she came over. No diet soda options, ordered a cocktail.... it was sour, was supposed to be a coconut mojito and tastes like a key lime milky drink... and small in size... We ordered the charcuterie board to start, sliders and pana tostones with spicy crab as entrees. I understand it's tapas but don't see the issue with timing our order out. All the food came out at the same time. She didn't offer condiments and came to check on food quality way after the fact. Several tables had sat at this point and were biding for her attention. The view is ok, tops of other buildings not bad not the best. More staff would've been good, diet drink option best.
